The Fifth Gospel

A pilgrimage, holy days rather than a holiday. A diverse group of people who became a community for ten days, travelling, relaxing, talking, laughing, praying, worshipping and eating together, But also for each person a personal journey; in fact two journeys - the visible, physical and the inner one, the impact that different places and experiences made .

A time of new and fascinating insights

We went to Bulgaria. A place stunning natural beauty, varied and interesting history, and we had the most beautiful autumn weather I have ever experienced.

Always trouble free and they are very good at the content combinations for a mixed group of travellers. We have traveled with the often and look forward to next March when we are booked with them again.

A busy week in a fascinating country

A full programme with a knowledgeable local guide. There was a danger of information overload, and I wished I had read up on Bulgarian history beforehand.

Perhaps because of the pandemic, I did not receive an acknowledgement of my booking, and was only confident that the trip would happen after paying the balance as specified in the terms and conditions.

McCabe Pilgrimages responded to this review on 28 Oct 2022:

Thank you for your feedback and time on the phone to discuss your experience. Although we did send a booking confirmation, it seems this may not have been received and we're sorry if this caused you any concern. Pre-departure communications is an area for continual improvement, so we can help our future pilgrims best prepare for their journey in a timely way.

Great experience by combining the two destinations of Austria and Germany

A most interesting experience combining the delights of the Salzburg with that of Oberammergau town and it's famous theatre performances. The distances between the the two venues weren't great so not too much time was spent travelling.

I have been on several holidays/pilgrimages with McCabes and consistently offer a friendly, professional service. You don't feel you are rushed or regimented into being at certain places at certain times. May it continue!!

A unique and wonderful pilgrimage

It was a thoughtfully programmed holiday with lovely accomodation, food and company. Oberammergue Passion play was an amazing experience and one to tick off the bucket list.

McCabe Pilgrimages is an excellent company, where nothing was too much trouble and we were looked after extremely well. They are efficient, experienced and knowledgable.

Mc Cabe did a good job, from time we first booked in 2019 for the 2020 Play and they joined us up with a nice group, through the 2 year delay, and until we reached Heathrow safely on 19.8.22

An amazing week

We travelled to Austria for the Passion Play at Oberammergau. As always with McCabe tours, everything went very smoothly. The daily programme was full but not tiring and there were plenty of options to choose from. The Tyrolean scenery was stunning and the Passion Play was a powerful experience that will stay with me forever. Best of all, I made some new friends and our group have set up a WhatsApp page. Overall, an amazing week.

I have travelled with McCabe Pilgrimages for 15 years and every tour has been first class, every detail is covered and as a single traveller, I always feel completely safe. They are my "go to" company - simply the best - the hotels, the transport, the local guides, everything is first class.

Oberammergau and Austria

Wonderful to experience the mountains of Austria and the trip to Oberammergau exceeded my expectations. I want to go back in 2030!
